Always the oft bored, ADD self, I decided to try some different tonight for my workout. Rachael and I hit a 45 minute spin class. When we started, I thought that was a good idea. I managed to make the entire class without stopping, but I couldn't handle all the standing up. The burn in my quads was more than this boy could handle. We have been done for an hour and I feel pretty good. I was able to keep my heart rate at the aerobic state the entire time, balancing between 162 and 175, which is perfect for me. The downside to spinning, it that there is not distance. Supposedly, allegedly, the 45 minute class averages 15 miles. I looked back at my previous performances on the bike, where I rode at a much slower pace. Back in July, I rode 11 miles in 42 minutes and much less of a pace. Therefore, I accept the 15 miles for training purposes. I am probably really going to accept it when I see how sore I am in the morning.
Cumulative miles since the start of training: 98.50 miles.
